Answer:

The correct answer is option D, 100 %

Explanation:

Freckles are a dominant trait in humans

The female partner has genotype = FF

The male partner with no freckles shall have genotype = ff

The cross between the above two is represented through a punnet square-

F F

f Ff Ff

Thus all the offspring will have genotype Ff,

Since the dominant allele is F . thus all the offspring would have freckles

D. The man's traits (ff) would be recessive and with one of the girls (FF), all their offspring would have the genotype Ff, meaning all the offspring have freckles.
